Wolfbrigade Streams Full New Album "Run With The Hunted"
The stark and striking immediacy that defines Wolfbrigade's dbeat, hardcore-crust punk remains evident on incoming album, "Run With The Hunted," which can now be heard in its entirety as the album sees official release today via Southern Lord.
Formed in 1995 initially as Wolfpack, after five years the band ventured into the new millennium as Wolfbrigade. The band has released an impressive volume of LPs and smaller releases, as well as touring widely over the years.
"Run With The Hunted" was recorded in both Studio Fredman in Gothenburg (At the Gates, In Flames, Martyrdöd), by Fredrik Nordström and Henrik Udd, and in Sunlight Studio (Dismember, Entombed, Grave) in Stockholm by Tomas Skogsberg.
About the new album, Wolfbrigade declares: "We looked to explore our rawness, writing straight-up, in-your-face, primitive songs. On this record, we decided to push the melodic strains even further, but without losing either intensity or brutality. Lyrically we have been inspired by both classic and obscure dystopian literature, finding suitably horrible metaphors for the decline of western society. The search for freedom continues, but this time the path is pointed inwards, into ourselves."
